Chapter 8, Problem 59EAP
59. A 100 g ball on a 60-cm-long string is swung in a vertical circle about a point 200 cm above the floor. The string suddenly breaks when it is parallel to the ground and the ball is moving upward.
The ball reaches a height 600cm above the floor. What was the tension in the string an instant it broke?

6. A 0.20-kg object attached to the end of a string swings in a vertical circle (radius = 80 cm). At the top of
the circle the speed of the object is 4.5 m/s. What is the magnitude of the tension in the string at this
position?
A ball of mass 19.5 g is attached to a cord of
length 0.568 m and rotates in a vertical circle.
What is the minimum speed the ball must
have at the top of the circle so the cord does
not become slack? The acceleration of gravity
is 9.8 m/s².
Answer in units of m/s. Answer in units of
m/s.
A 0.5-kg ball is attached to a string and whirled around in a circle overhead. The string breaks if the force on it exceeds 82 N. What is the maximum speed the ball can have when the radius of the circle is 1 m?
